Makes you wonder what's gone on.

Sounds like some one got shafted, but should have covered themselves for this eventuality!
Where does all the bloody time go.....?

That's the 2nd time that's happened to him now, his original range of mig products were taken from him in a similar way, not good. But there's always two sides to every story.

I've spoke to mig a couple of times via pm over on the ak forum and he always seemed a nice friendly guy, sad if he has been taken advantage of again.

It looks like the Facebook page has been taken down and the link Mig posted to the original post from AK is gone as well.

I hope all finish good, but I think that AK will have problems... I think in some months we will see MIG productions with filters and stuf like that that some months ago were from AK

Mig productions has nothing to do with mig himself, a similar thing happened to him with that company too :wtf:

I feel betrayed as much as he!

Hard to continue boasting their products after that!

I'm seriously thinking of Blacking out their Logo!

Awaiting some more information.... I need to read that memo from AK first.
I hope that AKi lost their best minds! Along with Mig J. When they all walked out!
So.... That's how Hostile take over happens hey?
It's all about money!

:scratch::

Thanks for sharing the information!

AK is not making that memo public.
The link Mig posted to the memo leads to a blank page.
